This cache is placed at a great little spot we came accros by accident when maintaing the series, please be careful not to break it when retrieving the log. If you have time this area of the wood is well worth exploring, especially if you have children with you!

The route to this cache may not be obvious, which is why it is a great one to explore with children. The cache is located just off one of the paths through the wood and should be approached from the western corner of the wood (via the path). Of course, if you wish to explore the wood more then you can simply follow the arrow straight up to the top of the hill and the cache!
People with children please beware that there is a small disused quarry at the top of the hill.

All caches are placed with kind permission from the National Trust. NONE ARE LOCATED IN DEER SANCTURYS.

The walk & the caches:

The walk will take you on a short 2.5 mile walk but don't be caught out by the distance. The terrain here is steep and can be uneven and boggy so allow extra time to complete the walk.



For people with small childeren, the 'bottom' section of the walk can easily be separated from the 'top'. Simply follow the wall on the moor side along from #4 (passing the BGC + caches en-route) until you reach a track and pick up the route again there. (marked in purple on the map)

The caches are a range of different shapes and sizes, some camoflauged and some not.

Note: The route does go over the moor so be prepared.
